It's not just ugly, his art is meant to be ugly now, but it stills interesting btw... He just took the Picassopill.
How do you learn to render ass like that, how do people do this shit

>>7967623>What the fuck is this guys lifeThat's just life
>>7967623omg
I hate how I have to be suspicious of every single picture and drawing I see now and wonder if it was made by AI. There mere act of looking at art itself has been soiled. Even if I never use AI myself and avoid it as much as possible, it’s still done irrevocable damage and made my life worse.>lol u mad broYes. I am mad. You have succeeded in making me mad. I am confirming that I am mad.
>>7970427LLMs/Neural networks copies or replicates an output, but that is not a drop-in replacement for the processes and decisions that leads to said output.Sooner or later you'll stumble upon the doorman's fallacy.>>7970445All this for shit he made up in his depressing mind. Unbelievable
>>7970467>doorman's fallacyNah, these are just growing pains, as with the 'reality gap' in robotics. It's not some impossible barrier, just a question of automating the implementation in a more finegrained way. Like I said, I do see this as all being a net-negative in the long term, but right now it's free money.
>>7970477Yeah sure, growing pains in your own head. I guess if you're not doing anything with your life everything looks like big, pointless nihilism.
>>7970490>it's just in your head bronigger we're fucked. the 21st century AI surveillance state is coming. everything will be predicted and nudged, the vast majority of real jobs will be automated and you will only survive if you play along with whatever retarded fake social system our dear leaders build on top. if you want to believe you have agency to feel better about that be my guest, but you'll see soon enough which way the wind is blowing.
>>7970498>the 21st century AI surveillance state is comingAll thanks to normalshits. I am sure I will suffer and I might have to kill myself but I hope everyone else will suffer orders of magnitude more than I. I hope parents will see their families crushed, I hope that even those cow brains will be able to know despair and regret for the shit choices they've endorsed all along. I fucking hate normies so fucking much it's unreal. The way they support the worst possible thing in the worst possible way every fucking time fucking mathematically is fucking unbelievable, it's like they do it on purpose. FUCK normies holy fucking shit. I was wrong in the last post, there is definitely nothing worse in this world than a fucking normie ape. Fucking disgusting all of them

Fundamentals aside, can trying to fix your own tastes alongside consuming more good media in general help you significantly if you're plagued with an unappealing art style/generally ugly drawings? Especially if your core fundamentals are somewhat decent
>>7967562how the fuck do you even color like this? What is the true color of her skin, or her clothes, or anything? I just paint bucket fill and then I'm lost on step 2 because if I'm drawing something new with an arbitrary light source then I dont have a reference for where the shadows would be and I can't just simulate the drawing in 3d to find out. Then they have literally millions of colors blended between the shadow and the light and that takes HOURS or careful feathering with the blur tool or a soft round brush. Nobody has time for that.
>>7967562>consuming more good mediaNo>studying more good mediaYes
>>7969086Comparing yourself to Sadamoto Yoshiyuki is not a good idea, anon.
>>7967562There are too many people with great taste in comics, games, novels, and music but are mediocre or outright shit artists, game devs, writers, and musicians for it to be that straightforward. A good palate is a must, yes, but good taste alone isn't something you can infuse into your craft by just consuming stuff made by superior artists.
>>7968471>implying there's any art left to enjoyget with the times and gobble the sloppa
While you're grinding indian drawabox challenges like a cuck beg hahahaha
>>7963426It's basically clear in this thread he was never that good to begin withHe just rode off his dad's success
>>7962712Hey, leave my goat drawabox out of this. Although he doesn't draw as well as peter han. His explanations of all about the teachings he learnt from peter han are actually more detailed. Besides y'all are just not following the guy's instructions correctly. Also, he does this for free! Yet, you guys are spitting on this man's hard work is insane
I'm sure after my next few bargue plates, Loomis and DaB grinding I'll be able to make art such as that, r-r-right?
>>7962724holy cope
>>7962785>>7968791kek nta but they literally found his father's signature under the paint layer where he put his own
Hi everyone! It’s me, it’s me, it’s F-F-P! Coming at you live (not really) and I NEED YOUR HELP.So for context, this is my favourite OC, Blanche. Her design has changed quite a bit over the years as I got more serious and developed her personality and story more. However, most people I’ve spoken to actually prefer the old design. It does have that lowest common denominator of being more traditionally attractive than the current design, but I really do think the new one fits her lore better. As an artist, I want to portray my own visions faithfully to myself but I cannot lie when I admit that my audience and colleagues opinions hold sway over me a bit. The allure of popularity and/or minor fame is intriguing.Before I ask my question formally, here’s some background on the character:Blanche is a dragon-person who, as an egg, was stolen away by a mischievous demon, and gifted to an enslaved underground people as a prophesied saviour-like figure that would free them. This promise would lead these underground people to raise her as a living weapon and a goddess. They gave her brutal martial training in secret but also sacrificed their resources to ensure she would grow big and strong, entrusting all their hopes and dreams into her. This leads Blanche to becoming a little apathetic to the underground world, begrudgingly doing as she was told since it was all she was taught and knew. After freeing the enslaved people from their oppressors, they installed her as the primary goddess of their society and relegated her to sitting in a temple most the time, sacrificing and praying to her. Because of her status, she makes no personal connections with anyone. Now she dreams of returning to the above ground world she’s only heard about in myth and legend.So now my question is thus: How can I merge these two designs into the best version of the character it can be? Any and all thoughts welcome, rude and genuine! I’m in a real pickle!Thank you.
>>7970064I got a gal pal who keeps sending me slime and jelly related vids on Instagram so I think I'm getting a good grasp of what the female audience likes especially those with tisms
>>7964155Hey anon, I've seen your character around here before and I like her too. I love BBWs myself. Haven't read through the whole thread yet, but maybe you can look at Oga from Elf-san Yaserarenai as bodytype inspo? I feel a parallel, as she's naturally strong as an ogre (and Blance would be too as a Dragon), but also loves drinking alcohol and eating fattening food in general.Maybe Oga's design will help you find that balance you're looking for.
>>7970171Never read Elf-san Yaserarenai but this character sounds like a happier version of Blanche. I'll think about it. Thanks Anon!
i think the second one conveys the character concept of jungle goddess bettermy man critique would be that the hair looks too anime the particular way it is cut and styled. it reminds me of a japanese hime cut. maybe you could make it more of a mesoamerican blunt fringe like chel from el dorado, or create a headpiece that has a similar hanging effect
>>7970307You're not wrong about the hair being too anime. It's a holdover from the very first drawing of her where I copied Satsuki Kiryuin's head. I added the vents later on.
Okay so since apparently nothing that I'm doing is working can someone give me a tutorial I can actually understand and apply?I've looked at the tutorials and I genuinely cannot understand them or figure them out. I don't know how to break things down into basic shapes nor apply them to what I want to draw. Unless someone explains the exact process to me I'm going to keep banging my head against the wall doing nothing. I tried Loomis, didn't work. I tried IC sticky and gave up immediately. Nothing has worked for me.
>>7969446This isn't me by the way.
I keep reverting back to old methods, even when I try new ones.
>>7969534less blogpost moar draw. my biggest peice of advice is to give yourself some compassion when it comes out wrong.
>>7970034Thanks for the method, I drew a hatkid today using this
is this you?

>>7955301>write wall of text, explaining the true purpose of art, being mans spiritual and primal inheritence in live>erase it because its too long and boring (most wouldn't understand it)heh, yea, i'm still learning, lol

It's kind of fucking hilarious that concept artists defended photobashing for years because "no rules just tools", only to have their entire job automated out of existence by a tool.

Let's grade the best books that actually benefit beginners greatly and not a /beg/ trap.
>>7969505What about Bridgman? Loomis? Vilppu? Hampton?
>>7968891Google is bad now. But surely you can still use it to find the reprint >>7962422 .Not everyone wants to sell on amazon.
>>7962422Is there a way to get notified for reprints? 1000MXN Isnt that bad
>>7969600Notified what? Just add the book to the cart and buy it. Then it will calculate the shipping to your shithole. Is it actually out of stock?
>>7969572Better than all of them
Too much shit on this board about muh fundees and not enough about the most resonant part of any art piece.Post art with good facial expressions. Not just pretty faces, but striking, memorable countenances. It can be your own, or pieces that've inspired you.
>>7970114You wouldn't dare suggest people do studies on these though. Just another image sharing thread for the books. Sigh. Back in my day we used to have real threads. The kind that made you feel something. That compelled you into creating. Now, vacuous data hoarding... MAKE IC GREAT AGAIN
>>7970160>Back in my day we used to have real threads. The kind that made you feel something. That compelled you into creating. Now, vacuous data hoarding... MAKE IC GREAT AGAINWhy arent you making such threads then.
>>7970160You could always do a study yourself, if you'd like.
